Exit Tickets - A New-Old Phrase

So I know for the past two days (which is a record for me on blogging here) I've mentioned exit tickets. I'm not sure why I didn't think of this newer version before now, but this is a phrase I use ALL the time with my kiddos; "Show me what you know".
So I made a new exit ticket, same graphic, with the "I can" statement. Click HERE to download your copy.

 



I used the I Made my Mark ones today after we watched a Cat in the Hat Knows All About That video on elephants. I gave them their ticket and I asked them to tell me one thing elephants can do with their trunk (great comprehension). I have to say, it went great! For some it was hard to fit everything on the card but I think this will be good practice to write a little smaller. Some kids just wrote a word or two and then drew a picture! I think having pens with a sharper tip so they don't write so bold might help, but I think for right now, they're working great.

I hope you find as much use for them as I have.
